Maisonneuve is an English-language general interest magazine based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.[1] It publishes eclectic stories of national and international scope on the arts, culture and politics.

History and profile

Established in 2002[2] by Derek Webster, the magazine is named after Paul de Chomedey de Maisonneuve, the founder of Montreal. It defines its mandate as "to dissolve artistic borders between regions, countries, languages, and genres". Drew Nelles served as the editor-in-chief of the magazine.[3]
